A little about us.

Tiflex Limited was formed in 1990 from an amalgamation of two well established companies. TICO and The Flexible Cork Company.

Tiflex is part of the James Walker Group of Companies, which has a combined turnover of approximately £200 million.

Tiflex was originally based in Hipley Street in Woking, Surrey, but since 2000 has had just one manufacturing site, based at Liskeard in Cornwall.

There are approximately 140 skilled people employed at the 99,800 sq ft manufacturing site, with a number of external sales people based around the country.

We undertake high volume production as well as the manufacture of bespoke items, many of which are designed in-house on behalf of our customers. Work is carried out on major projects throughout the world and almost half of our production is sold overseas.

Working closely with our customers, our polymer technologists work to develop solutions to a variety of engineering problems particularly those requiring high performance and product durability.

All Tiflex products are manufactured in a BSI registered factory operating a Quality Management System which complies with the requirements of BS EN ISO 9001:1994.

BSI Kite marked cricket balls suitable for top class cricket, a comprehensive range of men's county and league cricket balls including multi coloured and the new pink cricket balls, dedicated ladies and youth cricket balls.
